Bible verse
He has ground my teeth with gravel and trampled me in the dust.
Lamentations 3:16 · BSB
The verses around it, from Lamentations 3.
12 He bent His bow and set me as the target for His arrow.
13 He pierced my kidneys with His arrows.
14 I am a laughingstock to all my people; they mock me in song all day long.
15 He has filled me with bitterness; He has intoxicated me with wormwood.
16 He has ground my teeth with gravel and trampled me in the dust.
17 My soul has been deprived of peace; I have forgotten what prosperity is.
18 So I say, “My strength has perished, along with my hope from the LORD.”
19 Remember my affliction and wandering, the wormwood and the gall.
20 Surely my soul remembers and is humbled within me.
